Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court emphasized the necessity for timely delivery of judgments, citing Article 21 of the Constitution, which guarantees the right to a fair trial. The Court criticized the delay in providing reasons for judgments, noting that a gap of nine months between the operative order and the reasons violates judicial discipline and impedes the aggrieved party's right to seek redress. The Court held that such delays undermine the integrity of the judicial process and must be addressed to uphold the rights of litigants.
